Frequently Asked Questions
What is thyroid optimization?
Thyroid optimization focuses on identifying and addressing imbalances in thyroid function to restore optimal health. It involves a comprehensive evaluation, personalized treatment plans, and ongoing monitoring to help you feel your best.
What tests are used to assess thyroid function?
We use advanced testing that goes beyond standard TSH levels, including Free T3, Free T4, and thyroid antibody tests, to get a full picture of your thyroid health.
Can thyroid optimization help with symptoms even if my lab results are "normal"?
Yes! Many patients have symptoms of thyroid imbalance despite “normal” lab results. Our advanced testing and holistic approach help identify subtle issues that traditional testing may overlook.
How does nutrition impact thyroid health?
Proper nutrition is crucial for thyroid health. Foods rich in iodine, selenium, and zinc support thyroid hormone production and function, while avoiding certain processed foods may help reduce inflammation.

Common signs of thyroid imbalance include fatigue, difficulty losing weight, hair thinning, brain fog, mood swings, and sensitivity to cold. If you’re experiencing these symptoms, comprehensive thyroid testing can help determine if an imbalance is the cause.
What treatments are available for thyroid optimization?
Treatments may include bioidentical thyroid hormone replacement therapy, nutritional guidance, lifestyle adjustments, and supplements to address deficiencies or support thyroid health.
How long does it take to see results?
Results vary depending on your condition and treatment plan. Many patients notice improvements in energy, mood, and other symptoms within a few weeks, while more significant changes may take a few months.
Is thyroid optimization suitable for men and women?
Yes, thyroid optimization is beneficial for both men and women. Thyroid imbalances affect individuals of all genders and can significantly impact overall health.
